About Kairos

Kairos Commodities is a web-based portal that provides a wide range of highly valuable market information structured in a manner that is easy to read and understand.

The extreme volatility of commodity prices in recent years, creates greater challenges than ever before for purchasers and commodity managers trying to successfully manage cost risk. Raw material purchasers are currently facing one of the most volatile markets in history, while purchasers of semi or fully manufactured articles are experiencing sellers who forward price increases to the buyer almost instantly while maintaining high prices when the market is dropping.

It is imperative that the volatility for each commodity and its detailed sub-segments (for example, iron versus iron with nickel) are managed much more proactively, not only to avoid price increases, but also to ensure relative stabi­lity and predictability of company earnings. This makes it vital for purchasers and commodity managers to be well equipped for dealing with these challenging conditions.

The core of Kairos Commodities is based around several analytical methods that can help monitor and predict the price development of raw materials or cost drivers and give clear guidance on how to cope with these developments. Updated information and well-structured analyses of market developments is the most important information for any buying decision. The sad reality is that far too many procurement organizations lack these continuously updated and well structured analyses.

We believe that Kairos Commodities is one of the most important tools to be developed in this decade and as such it will prove to be an indispensable resource for procurement professionals in the quest for knowledge and certainty about commodity price developments.
